Hey guys, it's Illithid Dude. I'm taking over the LA Metro Rundown thread since DowntownCharlieBrown hasn't logged on since 2013.

The creator of volume 1 is no longer able to maintain the thread (notice the last update of page 1). After speaking with an administrator and a moderator, it was decided that a new thread should be created to keep the information updated. Volume 1 will be archived and linked to this thread shortly.

It is intended to mirror the LA downtown thread to maintain consistency.

If you have any suggestions for this thread, I will take any help I can get.

^ It says it at the top of the thread, but DaveinCali is simply too busy to update the old thread, so DowntownCB is taking over duties. Kind of like what we did with the downtown rundown thread. It's been run by the mods, so it should be kosher.

EDIT: Ha! DCB beat me to it.

I'm down with this thread. The old metro thread needed some organization. And to keep things in focus I really think we ought to keep this thread limited to L.A. proper and its enclave/semi-enclave cities (SaMo, WeHo, Beverly Hills and culver city). i think having something like A-Town or some SGV project might be too much. LBC and OC rightfully have their own threads.

Excellent start, btw, DCB. I remember seeing an updated render of Solair on Wishire but I can't find it. Perhaps fridayinla has one...

2 50-story condos for Century City? Outside of the Century, what else is planned at Century City? By the way, I see a fenced lot on the corner of Avenue of the Stars & Constellation...anybody know what's going on there?

That fenced lot at constellation and ave of the stars is where the twin 48 story towers are supposed to be erected. No activity for several months now tho.

Westfield is also planning a 40 story tower at santa monica blvd and ave of the stars, tearing down the 10 story building currenting occupying the property, adjacent to the mall.

Then there's the development at the old Robinson's/May (currently being utilized for several movie/tv shoots), a ten-story 5-star condo development. And in front of the Beverly Hilton is supposed to be the new Waldorf Astoria, at approx. 10-14 stories. Beverly Hills is worried about the congestion, so who knows what the status is on that one. Much like the large, fenced off lot next to 1800 CPE, on Santa Monica Blvd. It's been sitting there doing nothing for over two years after demo of the old two-story building that used to occupy the property.

This is all old news...

But, the Century is going up quickly, in case no one's noticed. Already working on the 5th or 6th floor. The oval pattern is quite evident. This is going to look great in CC...

regarding the NoHo art wave project, there are other renders and more info here:http://www.acmartin.com/nav_page.html Go to the "selected work" tab.
Also of interest there is the "High rise Hotel/ Residential Project" listed under the same tab. Looking at render #3, can anyone identify where in L.A. (I assume it is downtown) that is supposed to be?

I never really read curbed that much outside of announcements, are they a NIMBY-ish site? The seem down on this projcet: "It also appears that the building will have some kind of super graphic at its peak. Let the complaining commence. Completion is scheduled for 2009."

Do they carry an anti-density philosophy?
